Howie Kendrick Retires

Free-agent infielder Howie Kendrick announced Monday on his Instagram account
that he has decided to retire, Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post was
among those to report.
This concludes an outstanding career for the 37-year-old Kendrick, who
entered the professional ranks as a 10th-round pick of the Angels in 2002.
Kendrick was regularly a formidable offensive presence in their uniform, even
earning his lone All-Star nod in 2011. The Angels wound up trading Kendrick
to the Dodgers in 2014 for left-hander Andrew Heaney, though Kendrick’s
numbers dipped somewhat in their uniform. Kendrick’s Dodgers days concluded
when they dealt him to the Phillies in 2016. His tenure in Philly also didn’
t last long, as the club traded him to the Nationals during the ensuing
season.
The move to Washington couldn’t have worked out much better for Kendrick,
who was an integral part of the Nats from the 2017-19 regular seasons. Above
all, his contributions during the team’s first-ever run to a World Series
title in 2019 will never be forgotten by the franchise or its fans. Kendrick
hit a grand slam in Game 5 of that year’s NLDS against the Dodgers, which
helped the Nationals to a series-deciding win, and continued his heroics
during the Fall Classic. With the Nats in danger of losing Game 7 to the
Astros, Kendrick smacked a two-run homer in the seventh inning against that
gave the Nats a 3-2 lead they never relinquished.
Last season didn’t go well for Washington or Kendrick, whose numbers slid
during an injury-shortened campaign, though he’ll always be regarded as a
key component of their title-winning club and someone who was consistently a
quality producer. Kendrick slashed .294/.337/.430 with 127 home runs and 126
stolen bases across 6,421 big league plate appearances, and he made upward of
$71.6MM during his time in the majors, according to Baseball-Reference. MLBTR
wishes Kendrick the best in retirement.
